Diving Deep into Skin Moisture:

How Hydration Treats Skin

How does hydration benefit your skin?

  • Prevents signs of ageing: When your skin is well-hydrated, it stays plump and elastic, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 
  • Improves skin function: Hydrated skin can repair itself, maintain elasticity, and protect against irritants and environmental damage, as moisture helps transport nutrients to skin cells and remove toxins.
  • Improves skin’s look and feel: Hydrated skin has a natural glow, feels smoother, and is less prone to roughness and flakiness.
  • Enhances skincare product absorption: Moist skin absorbs skincare products more efficiently, meaning better results from serums, creams, and treatments.
  • Reduces oiliness and breakouts: Balanced hydration helps regulate oil production. When your skin is dehydrated, it can overcompensate by producing excess oil, leading to breakouts. 
 

Personalised Hydration Analysis:

Your Blueprint for Dewy Skin

First things first: skin analysis. When you come to The Beauty Base, we’ll thoroughly examine your skin to identify areas of dryness and any specific concerns you may have.

Next, we may recommend a Visia Scan to map out your skin’s hydration levels and reveal any sun damage, wrinkles, and uneven texture. The 3D picture of what’s happening below the surface of your skin will help us understand where it needs the most attention and care.

Based on our analysis, we’ll then create a personalised skin hydration treatment plan that includes targeted therapies, products, and a skincare routine

 

Innovative Skin Hydration Techniques and Ingredients

HydraFacial

Your skin has a natural moisturiser barrier that helps protect against environmental stressors and keeps hydration locked in. But your skin sheds this barrier regularly, leaving it dull, irritated, prematurely aged, or oily.

Our HydraFacial will restore this barrier by eliminating pollutants and dead skin cells while infusing new cells with hydrating and moisturising serums. As a result, your skin will look luminous and feel luxuriously smooth.

DMK Facial Masques

Facial masques from DMK harness the power of enzymes and deliver them deep beneath the surface of your skin. Blood flow is boosted, and detoxification kicks in to reveal revitalised, radiant skin. 

We can carefully concoct a masque for your unique skin profile to achieve the most hydration benefits. 

Microneedling

Microneedling involves tiny needles creating micro-punctures on the skin’s surface. This process stimulates your body’s natural healing response, promoting collagen and elastin production for firmer, smoother, and more hydrated skin.

Additionally, the tiny channels the Dermapen microneedling device creates increase the absorption of topical hydration products, like hyaluronic acid serums and moisturising creams, deep into the dermis. This level of product penetration maximises their effect.

LED Therapy

Healite II treatment delivers saturated LED energy deep into tissues to stimulate the regeneration of new skin cells. New skin cells improve the skin’s ability to retain moisture, leading to better overall hydration, a stronger skin barrier, and a healthier complexion.

What’s amazing about this non-invasive, pain-free treatment is that the effects of the LED aren’t limited to when you’re under the light. They start a chain reaction of your skin cells healing that continues long after your appointment!

Home Hydration Heroes:
Extending Professional Care

To support your spa treatments at home and maintain hydration, we recommend using these hydration products.

  1. Cleanser: Use a gentle, hydrating cleanser with glycerin or hyaluronic acid to remove impurities without stripping your skin of its natural moisture. Cleanse in the morning and at night.
  2. Toner: After cleansing, apply a hydrating toner to balance your skin’s pH and provide an extra layer of moisture. Toners with rose water or aloe vera are excellent choices.
  3. Hyaluronic acid serum: Incorporate a hyaluronic acid serum into your daily routine, as this powerhouse ingredient attracts and retains moisture.
  4. Moisturiser: Choose a rich moisturiser containing ceramides, shea butter, or squalane to lock in moisture and protect your skin barrier.
  5. Overnight hydrating mask: Once or twice a week, treat your skin to an overnight hydrating mask that delivers intense moisture and nourishment while you sleep.
  6. Hydrating mist: Throughout the day, spray a hydrating mist with chamomile or cucumber extract onto your face for a quick refresh.

FAQs About Skin Hydration

  • Drink plenty of water.
  • Eat hydrating foods like fruits and vegetables.
  • Use a hydrating cleanser twice daily.
  • Apply hyaluronic acid serum and moisturiser daily.
  • Use sunscreen daily.
  • Take lukewarm showers.
  • Use a humidifier while you sleep.

Rehydrating your skin can take a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the severity of dehydration and the consistency of following a hydrating skincare routine.

Drinking more water can help improve overall hydration and skin health, but it may not be enough to treat dry skin alone. Proper hydration combined with a consistent skincare routine that includes hydrating skin products is essential for effectively treating dry skin.
